CORN
When I was a kid we used to have corn a lot. Sometimes we would eat it off the cob and sometimes we would have it off the cob and cooked in a sauce pan.
My favorite way to have it was in the saucepan. It was the same as corn you get from a can --but much, much better! My mother would slice the tips of the kernels into a saucepan and then take a sharp knife and scrape the rest of the corn off the cob into the pan. Then she seasoned it with bacon grease, or butter, and cook until it was done--only she knew that!
I have bought many different kinds and brands of corn in the can but I have never, ever found any that tastes as good as what she used to cook!
I have also tried to make it myself but not with any success. Maybe corn was just better back in those days. Whatever, my mouth waters for a big helping of that delicious old time corn!

Yum! Think we'll have some corn for supper. We cook it in the shucks in the microwave. It comes out really good that way.
